Leading News Organization ITN Extends Advertising Deal with blinkx Based on Proven Campaign Success




blinkx Selected to Power Advertising across ITN Website and Syndication Partner Sites




SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF. - July 2, 2008 - blinkx, the world's largest and most advanced video search engine, today announced that it has won an extension contract that will augment the scope of its advertising partnership with ITN, one of the world's leading news and multimedia content companies. Under the terms of the new agreement, ITN will use AdHoc, blinkx's patented contextual advertising platform for online TV and video, to serve advertisements on the ITN website and its syndication partner sites, including Bebo.




Through AdHoc, ITN has already been effectively monetizing its premium news content on the blinkx.com network for over six months. During this time, ITN achieved a significantly better return, greater search volume, and higher monetization through blinkx than through other syndication partners.




AdHoc uses blinkx's patented speech-to-text transcription and visual analysis technology to understand video content more thoroughly and effectively than any other service today, and can therefore dynamically place the most pertinent advertising against it. The AdHoc platform offers media companies and advertisers a unique value proposition -- video advertising which combines the emotive power of TV promotion, with the relevance and utility of contextual search advertising.




The confluence of ITN's premium TV content, blinkx's extensive syndication network, and AdHoc's uniquely powerful targeting capabilities was a formula for success. By extending its partnership with blinkx, ITN aims to achieve similar returns by leveraging the AdHoc platform to deliver contextually relevant video advertising on its own website and across its distribution partner sites.




'We're thrilled to be broadening our relationship with ITN,' said Suranga Chandratillake, founder and CEO of blinkx. 'News content is one of the most popular categories of online video and there's clearly a tremendous opportunity for monetization. The success of our partnership with ITN is evidence that the blinkx AdHoc platform is a uniquely powerful solution for online video advertising today.'




'We've been delighted with the results of our partnership with blinkx and are looking forward to implementing the AdHoc technology on our site,' said Nicholas Wheeler, managing director, ITN On. 'blinkx AdHoc has proven that it can achieve significant monetization of our content, effective marketing for advertisers and, most importantly, a useful, non-disruptive experience for our audience.'




As a pioneer in video search technology, blinkx has built a reputation as the most effective way to search new forms of online content such as video. With more than 350 partners and 26 million hours of indexed video and audio content, including favorite TV moments, news clips, short documentaries, music videos, video blogs and more, blinkx uses advanced speech recognition technology to deliver results that are more accurate and reliable than standard metadata-based keyword searches.

certificates in the middle ...

We're all friends here!

some more so than others it would seem :-))

I see that the biggest ramper on here has appeared - ravey davy gravy

I am just surprised that it took him so long. What words of wisdom can we expect from him. Will it be 'fill your boots' or 'this is going to fly'?

but being a superior being, he has direct contact and influence with other superior beings to whom the likes of us can only tug our foreskins

cynic presumably you are unable to tug your fore.......

you've been checking through the hole in the wall into the shower again you pervert!

cynic religion rules ok!

I don't understand all this ramping crap.
If you like a stock you push it.
Acting otherwise makes no sense to me at all.
If you don't like it,my suggestion would be to go and find one that you do like.

why chess?
there's no reason at all why peeps (def inc me) should not post their misgivings .... in fact, a decent thread needs same for some balance

I dont think we will buy that one Chessdo you?lol

Your argument makes perfect sense to me. And I'm currently long BLNX. Obviously, a similar logic would apply if one were short - one would want to explain why.

Acting otherwise makes no sense to me at all.

Your logic is impeccable. Of course - "no position" is also a position. If one had "no position" one would be quite entitled to explain why, without being hounded by the longs.

Acting otherwise makes no sense to me at all.

Haystack.

Dont forget to tell the others here how important you are in real life and you have
doctors for friends :-))

lol

rdg is his usual bizzare self. I hope he won't forget he has been banned from MAM in the past because if his unruly and rude behaviour.

Just settle down there, at the back of the class and stop doing that - it is disgusting.

Haystackare you serious after the crap you and Gausie write? RDG trust me hes demented!

being demented is not a prerequisite for banning ...... under current legislation, provided you are not a danger either to the public or yourself, you are let loose on the world

It goes back to the inner circle !

Hilary is allowed to post bad language but if i post exactly the same i will be warned
and then banned !

Usual online garbage, i think some of these posters like haystack and cynic are just
loners, haystack used to post a lot of rubbish on advfn, he was banned every day for a year for spamming, i would like to see him come clean and admit it but these
type of posters have an abundance of arrogance so it wont happen !

tabby

Yes. that's what i was saying

"RDG trust me hes demented"

I know he is.
